  • Proven track record of creating electrical diagrams, wiring schematics, PCB layouts, and cabinet designs to guide production.
  • Extensive experience with battery management systems and energy storage principles.
  • Hands-on experience delivering high-voltage / high-current systems that meet rigorous safety standards for real customers or deployed products.
  • Familiarity with microcontrollers and/or embedded systems, including hardware–software integration.
